The Denny's restaurant chain is testing out a new technology that could mean big savings and less energy use.

Called Cool-N-Save, the tech comes from Greenway Design and is a system that's mechanically added to existing air conditioners to help reduce energy consumption. Each system is custom made and Greenway claims it can reduce energy use by up to 30 percent.

And for a company like Denny's, that means financial savings as well. One Phoenix-area restaurant will be receiving an installation that's expected to save around $10,000 in energy bills per year. As for the environmental impact, Greenway says that the restaurant will be able to reduce its carbon emissions by around 60 tons a year.

"This is a first in what we hope will be many installations for the chain," Greenway VP Darius Jakubik said.
